The reason is simple: the baby’s head is the widest part of its body and the most likely to get stuck in the mother’s birth canal. In a breech birth, the head is delivered last, which means both the mother and the doctor cannot relax at any point in between.

Everyone must hold their breath until the end, like a marathon runner sprinting to the finish line.

Doctor Tang handed a surgical towel to the husband. Du Haiwei took the sterilized disposable surgical towel and wrapped it around the lower half of the emerging baby, to keep the baby warm and prevent the doctor’s hands from leaving marks on the baby’s skin.

Lin Hao and the others ran to other parts of the house to look for a small heater; they needed to warm up the bedroom. The baby seemed at risk of having a low body temperature.

Boss Du’s actions suddenly quickened.

At this moment, after the fetus’s navel emerges, the doctor must help the mother deliver the baby’s head within eight minutes, otherwise, the umbilical cord could be compressed and cause oxygen deprivation, leading to the baby’s death.

Li Xiaobing breathed in and out, feeling herself getting closer to fighting a life-and-death battle alongside her baby.

Thankfully, she successfully "cursed" herself into having Boss Du assist in the delivery. Only a giant like Du Haiwei could handle the situation in front of her.

There are many techniques involved in a breech birth. The medical students and young doctors watching the delivery scene behind Zhang Wang were all eyes, staring intently at Boss Du’s every move, feeling like they were watching a magical stage performance.

The doctor’s hands turned the lower half of the fetus counterclockwise, like unscrewing a lid to reveal a magic miracle, and the baby’s shoulder and hand smoothly emerged with the movement. Immediately, the doctor’s hands grasped the baby, taking advantage of its slippery movement, turning the baby’s lower half clockwise again without a hitch, and this time the baby’s other shoulder and hand smoothly slipped out.

The magic-like delivery scene orchestrated by Boss Du was more thrilling and remarkable than magic itself. The medical students could only exclaim with excitement: Incredible.

The baby was almost fully exposed, only the head was left. Everyone’s hearts were in their throats.

Truly, it had reached the very final phase of the critical process.

At this most crucial juncture, for Boss Du to pull out the most complicated head on his own was somewhat difficult; additional assistance from others to help push the mother’s Uterus was greatly needed.

"No need, she’s enough." Seeing others stepping forward to help, Du Haiwei intervened.

More people don’t necessarily mean better help; too many hands might end up causing trouble. What is needed in critical clinical moments are elite soldiers.

With Student Xie here, she alone was sufficient to handle it. This was Boss Du’s assessment. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Lin Hao and Li Qi’an instantaneously turned their gaze towards Student Xie.

Despite Xie Wanying’s delicate face remaining calm and expressionless, everyone knew her strength was probably exhausted.

Undoubtedly, she was the one who had to hold out the longest among everyone present.

Dr. Xie’s hands probably no longer felt anything. Song Xueling’s brown eyes narrowed upon seeing her pale fingers, instantly recalling his own arm, which had not yet fully recovered.

This is perhaps where Dr. Xie commanded the greatest respect, as she continued to persevere and refused to give up when others thought it impossible.

"Yingying—" Li Qi’an’s worried eyebrows twitched, and with Teacher Du’s words, it became even more impossible for anyone else to step forward and take over the task for her.
